CONTENTS Introduction
WHAT IS LOCKOUT/TAGOUT/TRYOUT? 2 A Lockout is a method of keeping equipment from being set in
motion and endangering workers:
• A disconnect switch, circuit breaker, valve or other energy isolation mechanism is put in the safe or off position.
• A safety device is placed over the energy-isolating mechanism to hold it in the safe position. This is where Lockout/Tagout products are essential.
• A padlock is attached so that the equipment can not be energised.
In a Tagout, the energy-isolation device is placed in the safe position and a written warning is attached to it. All lockout and tagout materials are supplied by the employer. Each device must be:
• Durable to withstand wear.
• Substantial, so it will not come off easily.
• Capable of identifying the person who applied it.
Tryout - is where we test the controls to ensure zero energy and the equipment cannot be re-energised
• Always try the main controls
• Try mechanical valves to ensure zero energy
